ONLY few months since the circle was

good work and here a. in most places,

Main street. First b went out and left c and
the box behind. No sooner had left than
some mischievous spectators proposed that he
should put the rations in another box and
that the emptied box should be filled with old
rubbers which was done. Next, went out
and left both boxes behind. Then il wa, that
the same mischievous spectators transferred
the rations to Il third box, and filled box num-
Der two with old rubbers also, first giving the
rations very high seasoning with cayenne
pepper. While c was out he let some others OF
the company into the secret and in order that
B might not mistrust anything. box number
two was to be conveyd to their team by man
selected for that purpose. Box No. 3 was put
into the hands Of one Of the company with in
struction. TO deliver it at the proper time to B
and C.. When dinner time came B opened his
box, only to find it filled with old rubbers at
which c was in great lglee and laughed louder
and longer than any others In the party. When
he opened box No. 2, to find that also filled
with old rubbers, he was greatly ehagrned
at the huge unsupported joke which had
been played on him and the laugh which fol
lowed at bis expense. When the third box was
opened and and c got such dose OF cay

UNITARIAN CHURCH.

TeXt-Rev. 8 10.
Perhaps there Is no stronger organization In
the world than the church. This organization
IS powerful in advancing :he higher interests
OF mankind or 10 hinderng that Advancement.
1t il capable OF doing practical work or turning
it, back upon the most important demands Of
the time-. The world ad, ances intellectually
and morally and the spirit Of humanity de
msnds progress In religious thought. Can the
church afford to close its eyes to these things
and spend its strength In advocating and defend
ing theological opinions that came into exist
ence in an ignorant and cruel age and partake OF
the bsrbsrous spirit OF the times when men
were cruel as they were ignorant: II so,
then 1t can afford to neglect the practical work
of II ie and take no active part in the deN elop-
ment OF higher religious and moral life In
the world. But the church can afford to do
neither OF these things. 1t must exercise its
power in helping the world overcome the real
evils of life or fail to survive the transitions
taking place In the intellectual, moral and so
cial life OF humanity. The cry is often heard
that the church is being neglected, but does
not this neglect arise from the fact that the
church frequently stands for little else than
for ideas which the enlightened world has out
grown The church as a powerful organizs-
ton should stand at the head Of human prog
ress and should not fear TO attack the evils
which corrupt and debase social life should
not fear to take up the perplexing problems of
the social world and do what it can to solve
them.

HAYES to write the romance of Mt. Desert in Il

Considerable interest is felt in regard to
whether the Legislature will abolish the

system comes in vogue the town will have
to buy the school houses of the districts;
and will some one be kind enough to in
